[Intro]
2/4
| G C/G | G C/G G | G |
[Verse 1]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
Oh I'm sailin' away my own true love
[ Em ] Dylan (accidentally?) plays an Em here.
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
I'm sailin' away in the morning
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
Is there something I can send you from across the sea
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G |
From the place that I'll be landing?
[Verse 2]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
There's nothin' I wish to be ownin'
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G | % |
From across that lonesome ocean
[Verse 3]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
Made of silver or of golden
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
Either from the mountains of Madrid
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G |
Or from the coast of Barce - lona
[Verse 4]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G | % |
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'
[Verse 5]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
That I might be gone a long old time
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
And it's only that I'm askin'
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
Is there something I can send you to remember me by
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G |
To make your time more easy passin'?
[Verse 6]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
Oh, how can, how can you ask me again
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
It only brings me sorrow
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
The same thing I would want today
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G |
I would want again tomorrow
[Verse 7]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
Oh I got a letter on a lonesome day
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
It was from her ship a-sailin'
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
Saying I don't know when I'll be comin' back again
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G |
It depends on how I'm feelin'
[Verse 8]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
If you, my love, must think that-a-way
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
I'm sure your mind is roamin'
Em C/G | G C/G |
I'm sure your thoughts are not with me
Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G |
But with the country to where you're goin'
[Verse 9]
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Em9 D7/F# | G C/G | G |
Take heed of the stormy weather
Em C/G | G C/G | G |
And yes, there's something you can send back to me
G Em9 D7/F# C/G G D7/F# | G |
Spanish boots o-o-of Spa-a-nish leather
[Coda]
| Em9 | Em9 D7/F# | G G
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time signature changes for the whole song.
The pattern stays the same for most of the verses.
Sometimes there is an extra (half)bar at the end.
The first verse misses out on the D7/F# in the second line.
The last verse of Verse 7 has a slight variation.
The last line of the last verse has full bars of Em9 and D7/F#.
